Goodreads asked Ruth Hartman Berge:

What’s the best thing about being a writer?

Ruth Hartman Berge I really enjoy speaking with my readers. I speak at a lot of local events and get a kick out of seeing people laugh where I wanted them to in a story. With Betty Tales, I absolutely love speaking with elementary school children. By the end of my talk, they're up yelling "Climb those stairs!" Even better, the stories I get back from the teachers shows how a little, tiny book can make a huge difference in a child's life.
